Yacht Club last night, and no official action
in regard to the Consolation cup the club pro-
posed to offer. The race 10 undoubtedly of,
however, for the reasons given by Mr. Monroe
OF the clubs committee to SUN reporter.

unteer matched" he said, over our triangular
course, and tho club resolved to ofror prizes OF
$1,000 and $500 to tho winners Of first and Sec
ond places, provided we couldfget at least four
entries. Gen. Paine said decidedly that tho
Volunteer would certainly be found In any race
In which the Thistle should take part. Mr..
Bell slso consented readily. Then the Puritan.
Galatea, Atlantic and Priscilla were asked to
come In, but all, except the Atlantic, de-
clined to enter against the Volunteer
though they were willing enough to race tho
Thistle. OF course, We couldn't blame them
for being unwilling to enter where they felt
sure OF being beaten. OF course. too. we
couldn't think Of asking the Volunteer to with
draw, for just, now. you know, II Gen. Paine
wanted the earth with fence around 1t. he
would get It and he ought to have It. But we
were very sorry the match could not be made.
